Ridgewood NJ, yesterday, Intuitive Machines’ Odysseus lander, marking the first-ever commercial spacecraft to land on the moon, ceased transmitting, prematurely concluding its mission several days ahead of schedule. While the historic endeavor successfully returned US spacecraft to the moon following a 50-year hiatus, it encountered setbacks as it tipped onto its side during landing near the lunar south pole last week.
